If there is no air pressurein the main or emergency reservoir, close the air compressorswitch and pull in the line switch by hand, holding it in untilsufficient air pressure is obtained to hold it in. 8. Start motor-generator set by closing switches. 9. Test bell, Sanders and lights. 10. Test out control as described in pages (of instructionbook) following. 11. Start blower motor. The blower must be kept in con-stant operation while the locomotive is The gages on the top line, reading from the left, are: Turbine No. ^condenser, turbine No. 2 steam, auxiliary steam, turbine No. 1 steam,turbine No. 1 condenser. Those on the bottom line, reading from theleft are: Recording vacuum No. 2, recording steam No. 2, auxiliary ex-haust, recording steam at boilers, recording vacuum No. 1. The roundgages on each side of the nameplate are: Power house compressed airsystem, the power house heating system. The vertical gages are for thetwo draft fans. The single gage at the bottom of the board is a recordingthermometer to indicate the superheat of the steam. St. Clair Tunnel—View of Gage Board at Power Station 12.
